A pale, generously-hopped session beer. Hints of sweetness and a subtle elderflower aroma offer a terrific balance to the hops. A real thirstquencher!
Made with Challenger, East Kent Goldings, Pioneer, Mosaic and Styrian Goldings hops. Elderflower infusion

Cask, handpump at The Turf Tavern, Oxford 02.09.10 Pours lmid gold with a white head. Floral and honey on nose, but not sure that I could tell it was elderflower, regardless it’s a good tangy beer, nice zappiness to this and a could beer to try alongside the Downton Allrounder. Nicely bittersweet, pleasant beer. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov13 3.4

Cask (GBBF 2010) - Golden in colour. Elderflower and hops in the aroma. Peach, elderflower and grapefruit can be detected in the taste. Not bad and fairly refreshing.

Cask gravity at Reading BF 08. Gold with lasting off white head. Decent golden bitter. Bit of elderflower, but actually really bitter. Very dry finish. Just a lovely elderflower beer, intense, but easy drinking.
